Linkwarden
Linkwarden collects links, keeps a full-page archive, and lets a team share collections. GitHub lists the license as AGPL-3.0. The homepage documents a browser extension, search, and import and export. It is a bookmark archive first. A cleaned article reader is not the thing it leads with. We have not checked a hosted price.
Open source means you can use, change, and share the code.
